Windows Mail delete bug

[Bob Moore]

I just bought a new quad core Dell XPS 420 machine (Q6600) with Vista, and
successfully migrated all my Inbox/Sent/Deleted emails from Outlook Express.
I have noticed one cosmetic bug in Windows mail, which the Vista SP1 upgrade
still does not fix: when I double-click a header in the Inbox email list to
open an email in a separate window, the header for that email remains
highlighted but grayed (as it should) in the Windows Mail list. If I then
hit the Delete "X" in the individual mail message window, the next mail
message in the main list is displayed (as it should be), but the highlight in
the main Windows Mail listing drops down two lines (to the email below the
one displayed in the open email window). Has anyone else noticed this?
Microsoft Developers--when are you guys going to fix this?

As far as I can tell, no one from Microsoft is reading this newsgroup any
more.

Microsoft has apparantly stopped updating Windows Mail; they are putting
most of their email effort toward their new email program, Windows Live
Mail, and their extra-cost email program, Outlook, instead.

If you want someone from Microsoft to at least read your request,
try sending it here but don't expect an answer:

Microsoft seems to have diverted all development work to the
replacement email client, Windows Live Mail.
